The GTX 1080 Ti Founders Edition 11G, clad in the classic \u201cTitan-style\u201d heatsink commonly associated with the GTX 10 series, has gone from being an unattainable dream to just another item in my collection. Today, I\u2019ll give this legendary graphics card from six years ago a quick unboxing and cleaning so you can take a look.

Suddenly, I was transported back to 2017, when I first started getting involved in the PC DIY community, back when I\u2019d see people online unboxing GTX 10-series Founders Edition graphics cards. As a broke college student at the time, all I could do was gaze at them with envy from behind my screen. I had to keep that excitement bottled up inside, so\u2026 I suddenly lost my head, placed an order, and waited for the package to arrive. On February 28, 2017, NVIDIA officially announced the \u201cNVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Ti,\u201d the top-of-the-line model in the GeForce GTX 10 series. Performance details were unveiled on March 9, and it officially went on sale on March 10. At the time, the MSRP was $699; after crossing the ocean and entering Taiwan\u2014with the additional \u201cGhost Island tax\u201d applied\u2014the price ranged from 24,900 to 24,990. The used card I acquired this time was manufactured in May 2017 and is a GIGABYTE GeForce GTX 1080 Ti Founders Edition (GV-N108TD5X-B) with a reference price of 24,990 New Taiwan Dollars. The GTX 1080 Ti is NVIDIA\u2019s flagship consumer-grade graphics card based on the Pascal architecture, featuring 3,584 CUDA cores and 11 GB of GDDR5X video memory, It utilizes a 7-phase Dual-FET power delivery system, a heat spreader, and a turbo radial fan, with a base clock of 1,480 MHz and a boost clock of 1,582 MHz, delivering a 35% performance boost over the lower-tier GTX 1080. \u2206 The GeForce GTX 1080 Ti Founders Edition sold by GIGABYTE\u2014what was once a flagship model can now only be compared to a 70-series card. The GeForce GTX 1080 Ti Founders Edition is a graphics card designed by NVIDIA. It features a single turbo fan paired with a heat spreader to cool the GPU core, while its appearance\u2014with a three-dimensional diamond-cut fan shroud and a transparent side window\u2014gives it a truly unique style. a style that has not been seen since the RTX 20 series. \u2206 The graphics card measures 266.7 x 111.15 x 40 mm. \u2206 Single turbo fan. \u2206 Viewport showcasing the heat spreader fins. \u2206 Dust accumulated over six years of use. The cooling modules on Founders Edition graphics cards are designed to be as compact as possible, making them slightly smaller than models released by AIC partner brands. The GTX 1080 Ti Founders Edition occupies only a 2-slot bracket, and its low profile, combined with the turbo fan, makes it well-suited for airflow configurations in ITX cases. Powered by PCIe 8+6-pin connectors, the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti Founders Edition can reach a power consumption of approximately 350\u2013380 W under stress testing. \u2206 2-slot depth. \u2206 8+6-pin power connectors; a power supply of at least 600 W is recommended. A GIGABYTE sticker is affixed below. \u2206 The now-obsolete SLI interface. The back of the graphics card also features a metal-reinforced backplate, though its appearance is relatively simple and understated. There used to be stickers on the back, but they\u2019ve all become brittle due to high temperatures, so I removed them. \u2206 Back of the graphics card. \u2206 Display output ports and gold-plated connector protectors. \u2206 1x HDMI 2.0b, 3x DisplayPort 1.4, simultaneous output to four displays, maximum 8K resolution.
